- Hi Guys!
Apologies in the lack of uploads recently, I've really been trying to get used to my new uni schedule, and working on UA-cam at the same time. This video shows me doing a verbal reasoning subtest while trying to vocalise my thought processes.
Let me know in the comments if this type of video is helpful, and what other types of content you are looking for!

Thank you so so much for doing this video- its probably the only one i've seen under fully timed conditions. I just did a VR subtest and I got the highest I've ever scored by using your techniques. This gave me so much hope to do well now! appreciate it :)
That's amazing! Glad its helping you out!
Bro is too humble 36/44 he's saying its not good 😂
you're absolutely brilliant and so underrated! thank you for this!
Thank you!
thank you! it really helps seeing your thought process in real time :)
thank you so much!! This was very helpful!!
Notification squad wya !
you're a legend this was soo helpful! one thing though I'm consistently getting 500 in verbal reasoning using the keyword method approach any recommendations? I've done tons of practice. i find that timing is always the issue.
I think if you're getting that low in VR it might be due to 2 things. 1. You're "scanning" but you're trying to do it so quickly that you're not reading anything or 2. You aren't skipping questions that require a disproportionate amount of time. Since you say timing is the issue, maybe try doing a mock where you really focus on doing the VR subtest in maybe 3 passes. First time answer 30 qs in 14 mins ish, and then 2nd time do 10 qs, then in the last pass do 4. That way you'll get used to skipping questions more.
@@EmilEddy Hi Emil! Could you please explain what you mean by do 30q in 14 mins then 10q then 4q? Thank you so much!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Go Boi
At 7:18, for example, when searching for the word ‘summer’ are you actually reading and taking in the text up until the word summer or literally just scanning for summer and taking none of the content of the extract in?
Hi you mentioned that the reading the question technique and then scanning the passage is a technique that's widely popular and used by people like yourself (scoring in the 99th percentile) so HOW exactly do those with 99th percentile do it differently that makes them do substantially better, because it just seems like you doing it the same way as everyone else
When you look at the question first, do you try to memorise the answer options as well? How do you approach questions that ask for a summary of the entire passage? They take me too long.
Yeah, I usually try to memorise the keywords from the answer options as well! I find this helps me to isolate what I need best from the passage. With summary or author's intention questions, I try to eliminate a couple of answer options straight away from the sound of the answer, because sometimes they'll just be ridiculous, then I might guess and move on without even reading the passage in full. It's often much better in my opinion to try come back to these questions when you have more time!
what do you think about when you decide which paras to skip or attempt?
I usually look at the length of the passages as well as what the content might be. If the passage looks too long, or isn't split into many paragraphs I'll skip it. If the passage contains stuff with a lot of dates and historical context I might skip it as well.
Hi Emil! Thanks so much for your videos! many of your tips are incredibly valuable and have helped me a lot already!!!
I wonder if you could put down a link to UCAT subtest mocks that you are doing here? I'm struggling to find them for some reason
www.ucat.edu.au/ucat-anz/practice-tests/
It's practice test A on this link! :)
@@EmilEddy Thank you! that's a full timed test, isnt't it? I'm also looking for separate mocks (not question banks) for various subsets. Are you aware of any on the official UCAT website?
@@AlI-zk6em Yeah, the one I'm doing is a fully timed test. There unfortunately aren't any timed mocks on the website, which is why im just doing the test!
So basically you read the question at first and then skim and scan for keywords? Do you recommend reading the text so that you understand it and can answer comprehensive questions without looking at text again or it takes more time?
Watch my more recent video on verbal reasoning, that should answer your questions
Just a random question, what do you press on your keyboard to go to the next question and to flag questions? Thanks
alt + n to go next, alt + f to flag. Keep in mind that it doesn't work sometimes on the official website, but it will work on the actual test
@@EmilEddy Thanks so much!
at 15:45 it says he defended a bridge near Rome, not in Rome, so wouldnt it be false?
Hey Emil, was wondering in your real exam were the passage long (similar to Medify) or short (similar to the official website)?
probably somewhere inbetween! Few were really long and others were medium sized
Cool thanks Emil!
How much difficult was your actual test compare to this one?
I have a video coming out about this on Monday, but I thought this one was slightly easier than what I got on test day.
I found this really useful Emil! It really helped to speed up my reading under time constraints. However is it possible for future references to make the screen slightly bigger so that the text is easier to read?
Yep will do!
when i do medify mocks of vr they are like 2 or 3 times longer than this.
Your actual test will probably be somewhere in between.
@@EmilEddy thanks because with the official mocks I was able to drop around 8-9 marks but with medify it was more like 18... Also your qr live subtest was very useful for me as it boosted my scores from around 600-700 all the way to 780-850.
@@rayyanpatel372 That's ok! Just try and improve on both. Glad to hear you've improved in QR!
Can you do DM videos?
DM video is already up on my channel!
Hi I was wondering if the UCAT actually had such short passages. During my medify practice I rarely come across such short passages so I wanted to know if this is representative.
The real UCAT will probably be somewhere in between
@@EmilEddy Thank you :)
